The DOH is collaborating with WA state Senior Centers to implement ‘Denying Gravity’. Denying Gravity Falls Prevention Project is a groundbreaking documentary. The film explores the complex nature of aging, resistance to change, and all the relatable patterns that increase fall risk. Claire’s (the senior who falls) journey is a cautionary tale.
The film explores Claire’s attitudes and actions, the spiral after her fall, and the dramatic events that follow. Audiences connect with and relate to Claire. After people see Denying Gravity, they report that they are ready to change their behavior. If you are interested in learning more, please reach out to: findingourbalance@doh.wa.gov
